Keith and I have been busy making an epic mural for Martin Middle School, where our daughter attends. This project has been made possible through the Martin Middle School PTA and the United Arts Council.
This mural was created this winter- all students were attending school virtually- and could not come together to create it. So Keith and I created over 1,000 packets of paint and tyvek (to paint on) and instructions on how to do a small abstract painting. We also highlighted some of our favorite abstract painters like Joan Mitchell and Gerhard Richter.
The project was designed to include every student at Martin and the response was overwhelming. We took the art the kids made and arranged it into a mural that is 8’ high and 24’ long- featuring the school’s mascot- Mustangs!
We are really proud of how the kids came through and glad to bring everyone together for a creative project during these bleak days.
